Watch out for the polished preacher
The one with the salesman smile
He is keen and knows Scripture
and will make it worth while
to get you inside his palace
He’ll promise to shepherd you in truth
But he will add to his scrupulous teaching
a common and accepted spoof
not found anywhere in the Bible
One crafted by men and their pride
A denominational division
and hidden beneath this lie
is leverage to make you a slave
to this exclusive sect of theirs
where the cult is all you think about
and any affair of theirs
Cut off from the true Church
Placing men before the Lord
Taking money from the pocket
of the sheep who can’t afford
to keep the heat on in winter
and when Sunday comes
Ol preacher says he needs more
while showing total sums
He goes home to his palace
and fuels his fire that warms
with the cash that you freely gave
to the polished man who charms
What a disgraceful way to treat God’s children
robbing them of truth
while the thief stands before them
in the silken tailored suit
What a lie the church is today
What a joke the message is
What a price you’ll someday pay prideful man
distorting what is His
My Journey 
This is so true in many churches today. It is more about the person, the programs, the right doctrine. It is about getting more people in to build a bigger building. Then increase the offering to pay the mortgage, the salaries, the expenses. When did church become such a large business with its CEO and board of directors? This is certainly not what God meant when he said he would build his church. His Church is not a building nor a place. It is the people. People who love God and love one another. It is those who show the love of God daily to everyone. It is those who encourage and build one another up while showing the love of God to all they meet. So glad there are those who are Done with Religion, those who are living for God daily outside the walls of institutional christianity.
